What to eat next to some Creamy Stuffed Mushrooms?? Well Spinach Polenta, of course…
It’s so easy to make. This was the first time my mom ate polenta… at least called polenta. – because she told me that when she was little they would serve something similar but with another complicated name in Spanish.
This is a great way to repurpose creamed spinach or cooked spinach you may have made for crepes…
SPINACH POLENTA
1 cup vegetable broth ½ cup milk 5 tbs quick cooking polenta – but make sure to read and make it according to your package suggested measurements ½ cup of creamy spinach mix – like the one I use to stuff crepes… 2 handfuls of shredded 5 cheese blend Salt and Pepper to taste
- Pour vegetable broth and milk into a medium pot over medium-hi heat and bring to a boil.
- Add the polenta slowly while whisking the liquid to avoid any lumps. Stir occasionally until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. I like it smooth for this preparation.
- Turn off the heat and add the creamy spinach mix and the shredded cheese. Mix well using a spoon until it’s all well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Leave covered until ready to serve.
If you’d like, you could also add about ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese to add more flavor to it…
I’m going to try this one this weekend!
